Summer Camp Adventures

Tanah Keeta boasts access to 4 different types of waterways. Campers will explore the aquatic environment, along with learning how to rig up their own rod and reel, how to tie a proper fishing knot, basic tackle, and how to tie flies & jigs to help on future fishing adventures.

Scouts will work on requirements for the Fishing, Fly Fishing, and Fish and Wildlife Management Merit Badges, earning the Complete Angler award.

Scouts are encouraged to bring their own rod, reel, and the tackle they need to catch bass, snapper, and maybe even a swordfish!

To participate in this outing, fishermen must be 12+ years of age and ready to catch a big one!

We are doing something different with an Ecology Adventure program! During the Ecology Adventure you will experience many Ecology and conservation activities like Weather, Reptile and Amphibian, Bird Study, Insect Study, Mammal Study, a beach clean-up, and even a fun snorkel adventure.

We will also be taking a trip to some local animal and nature exhibits at Busch Wildlife Sanctuary and Loggerhead Marinelife Center.

This highly demanded activity is back at TK! And there are two options to choose from!

Option 1 - SCUBA Adventure

Scouts will complete the requirements for SCUBA BSA, the SCUBA Diving Merit Badge, and PADI Certification. NOTE – there is a classroom component to SCUBA that requires passing a written test.

Please review the SCUBA Information and permission slips on the Gulf Stream Council website (Summer Camp page). See important medical notes on the next page. NOTE – All Scuba programs must have at least 4 participants enrolled in order to conduct the class. We offer two levels of SCUBA Certifications along with optional add-on adventures.

Option 2 - SCUBA 1: PADI Open Water Certification

This week-long program is an opportunity to get your scuba certification. If you’ve always wanted to learn how to dive, discover new adventures, or see the wondrous world beneath the waves, this is where it starts.

When you complete the class, you will receive your set of mask, snorkel, and fins to take home with you and you will receive your certification ID Card in the mail. The course includes classroom academics, dive computer training, a final review, pool sessions, dives 1-4, and equipment.

There will be a maximum capacity of 18. Students under the age of 15 will receive a junior certification. This certification does not need to be repeated at age 15. The diver can contact PADI and request a new certification card (PADI charges a processing fee)

Scouts must be 13 years old or older, have earned the swimming merit badge before camp, and must meet BSA height and weight requirements.

The first session of SCUBA I will take place on Sunday at 11:30 am. Please arrive at camp for check-in at 11:00 am.
